Server went from 40% TR and 30% VS to 30% TR and 60% VS. The scythes covered the skies and would not give up.

Bust out teh triple A. target rich enviroment.

On Briggs, the TR pop stays on Indar, they keep their continent cap 24/7, the times I'm on, its all red.

VS and NC regularly swap possession of Esamir and Amerish, once one is capped, the zerg heads to the other continent.  As for the TR, pop rarely gets above 15% for non-Indar, while Indar doesn't seem to drop below 40%, and when the Prowler zerg starts, it can't be stopped - it's fun popping them though.

I'm on Mathesson (sp?) and it pretty balanced on all continents. And any notion that Esamir is too open for infantry is just not accurate to my experience. I play infantry exclusively on all the maps.

I joined Mathesson as NC because it was mentioned a bunch of people in this thread were doing so, never seen anyone in game but I guess I never looked for anyone either.

I play on Indar as well, but usually only when I am in the mood for mindless spawn->zerg->die->spawn ...

I find it much harder to pull of any cohesive squad maneuvers on Indar because theres just a relentless zerg of enemies willing to throw 1000 dead bodies at whatever clever tactics you had in mind. kinda pointless usually.

Speaking as a Scythe pilot, Esamir is infantry hell. If I catch anyone outside of a base, they're going to die unless they log on me, even if my accuracy is terrible, because pretty much the entire landscape is composed of open snowy plains and frozen lakes. Couldn't ask for better visibility than that. Same deal if you're driving a tank, or if you're sniping, or if you're gunning from a Lib. A flat, open landscape that contrasts very well with infantry colors is just about the worst terrain you can get if you're a grunt.

[Knight of Fools]

Esamir sure looks sweet during the night, though.

[Rowanas]

I dunno. Of the short time I've played, pretty much all of it was on Esamir (I switched continent by accident once, but found my way home) and I've run across the snow dunes taking out errant tanks a good couple of times now. I would take the open over a tight, enclosed building with a doorway any time of day.

I think I'm going to play on Esamir more now. Being infantry when an army of 10 magblowers and 3 sundhurrers steadily advance to your base while you get killed constantly just isn't fun.

Not sure if this would go here or the computer advice thread:
Would super low fps when loading new areas be at all related to RAM?

[Imofexios]

Ps2 is pretty demanding so it is hard to say without computer specs.

My guess would be southbridge transfer rate or video card.  Is it playable once the zone is loaded?

[Facekillz058]

Yes, I get atleast 30 fps when i'm in a loaded area.
It just when moving somewhere new it gets painful.

[Toaster]

What's your RAM (and video card RAM if you know it?)

[Facekillz058]

RAM is 4 Gb, unsure as to my video card's ram.

[Flying Dice]

What video card do you have? Wikipedia has full lists of the specs for every NVIDIA and AMD card there is.
